Brianna “ChickenFry” LaPaglia claimed to have had an amazing FaceTime chat with the ex-wife of her ex-boyfriend Zach Bryan. The chat between exes comes a month after the pair broke up and Brianna accused the country singer of emotional abuse.
In the latest episode of the BFFs Podcast — which Brianna hosts alongside Dave Portnoy and Josh Richards — the 25-year-old revealed that she had a candid chat with Zach’s ex Rose Madden.
“I FaceTimed with Rose for a couple of hours actually,” Brianna shared.
“I fucking love her. I have never felt more seen and validated in my life. Same with her. Oh my gosh, she’s a great person.”
While Dave quipped that he would’ve “loved to be a fly on the wall for that”, Brianna said she’s keeping what went down during the chat quiet.
“That’s between me and Rose,” she said.
The conversation came up after Dave noticed that Rose posted a positive comment under one of his videos with Brianna, calling it “comedy gold”.
“Quite literally every single person from his past has basically in their own way confirmed everything, which says [a lot],” Dave said. The man truly is a gossip queen.

Rose was married to Zach from 2020 to 2021. In July 2023, Brianna and Zach got together. They dated for more than a year and separated in October 2024.
Zach confirmed their break up in a post on his Instagram Stories.
“She has loved me unconditionally for a very long time and for that I’ll always thank her,” he wrote.
“I have had an incredibly hard year personally and struggled through some pretty severe things. I thought it would be beneficial for both of us to go our different ways.”
However, Brianna claimed this post blindsided her and made a YouTube video telling her fans that she needed a break from the internet.
Earlier this month, Brianna alleged that Zach emotionally abused her and that he offered her $12 million USD ($18.4 million AUD) if she signed a non-disclosure agreement promising not to talk about their relationship or the breakup. She said that if she said yes, she would have received the money “over the course of three years”.
“They would’ve been monitoring everything that I do,” she said in a previous episode of the BFFs Podcast.
I thought about it for a second and I think they tend to forget, I started to forget, that I was someone, I was established, I was successful, before [Bryan].”
